One of the most revered and well-respected franchises in all of the American Hockey League, the Rochester Americans have hoisted the Calder Cup a total of six (6) times in their history since their founding in 1956. Offered here, is this lot consisting of a Amerks jersey donned by Dylan Hunter during the 2006-07 season as well as a pro on-ice style “stars and stripes” authentic jersey from the mid-to-late-1990s. For the Hunter jersey, the Reebok made garment sports both Reebok/AHL and size “54” labels affixed to the inner collar while showcasing Reebok logo patches over the reverse neckline and hem. Also having had an AHL league patch placed over the reverse hem as well, the front of the jersey is decorated with Rochester’s iconic shield crest that features embroidered details and has had an ESL sponsorship patch added over the left breast. With matching star alternate logo crests done in layered tackle twill applied over both shoulders, the sleeves and verso have had Hunter’s number “19” sewn to them in dual layer blue-over-red tackle twill numerals while “Hunter” is spelt out in matching style across the affixed matching nameplate. Exhibiting game-wear via stick marks throughout the sleeves and body, both sleeves also display with unrepaired cuts/holes plus board burns with the left arm featuring a red board paint transfer as well. With more board burns and an unrepaired hole observed at the left shoulder, pilling and a MeiGray Group patch are present on the interior and the jersey is accompanied by a matching MeiGray LOA and COR. Of note, staining is found around the collar and hem as well.
For the stars and stripes jersey, the Bauer made offering in a highly patriotic design features Bauer, washing instructions and size “54” tags affixed to the inner collar with both Bauer and AHL league crests over the reverse hem. A classic tie-neck style garment, the front is decorated with a large “R” and “Americans”, both in dual layer tackle twill along with individually sewn on white twill over the upper chest and shoulders. Accented over the sleeves with blank blue-over-red tackle twill shield patches awaiting a number customization, pro on-ice style elements such as a fight strap on the interior and reinforced elbows are observed. Remaining in excellent condition, a couple of spot stains exhibited on the left sleeve are worth mentioning for accuracy.
